After Lady Qi left in a huff, Cuier's heart finally settled back to a calm rhythm. Looking at her earnestly, Gong Shoule said, "Cuier, Madam saved your life today. How do you plan to repay her?" Hearing this, Cuier's eyes flashed with a resolute light. She knelt before Wang Danlu once more and said sincerely, "Cuier wishes to serve Madam for the rest of her life."
Watching Cuier kneel before her, a warm current surged through Wang Danlu's heart. She gently soothed her, saying, "There, get up. Knowing you have this in your heart is enough for me." Her voice was gentle yet firm, possessing a magical strength that brought Cuier a hitherto unknown sense of peace.
From then on, Cuier officially became Wang Danlu's personal maid. Under the Madam's protection, she no longer had to fear Steward Qi's brutal beatings and curses. With her kindness and consideration, Wang Danlu slowly dispelled the gloom in Cuier's heart, leading her step by step into a peaceful and stable life.
